    Story Of My Life

    High school seemed like such a blur,
    I didn't have much interest in sports or
    School elections.
    And in class I dreamed all day,
    About a rock 'n' roll weekend.
    And the girl in the front of the room, so close yet so far y'know she never seemed
    To notice
    That this silly school-boy crush
    Wasn't just pretend.

    Life goes by so fast, you only want to do what you think is right.
    Close your eyes and then it's past;
    (It's the) Story of my life.

    And I went down to my old neighborhood,
    The faces have all changed, there's no one left to talk to.
    And the pool hall I loved as a kid
    Is now a Seven Eleven.
    I went downtown to look for a job,
    I had no training, no experience to speak of.
    I looked at the holes in my jeans
    And turned and headed back.

    Life goes by so fast, you only want to do what you think is right.
    Close your eyes and then it's past;
    (It's the) Story of my life.

    Good times come and good times go,
    I only wish the good times would last a
    Little longer.
    I think about the good times we had
    And why they had to end.
    So I sit at the edge of my bed,
    I strum my guitar and I sing an outlaw
    love song.
    Wonderin' bout what you're doin' now
    And when you're comin' back.

    Making believe,
    That you still love me.
    It's leaving me
    Alone and so blue.
    I'll always dream, but I'll never own you.
    Making believe,
    Is all I can do.
    I can't hold you close,
    Darling when you're not near me.
    You're somebody's love,
    You'll never be mine.
    Making believe,
    I'll spend my lifetime
    Loving you
    And making believe.

    Ball And Chain

    Well it's been ten years, and a thousand tears
    And look at the mess I'm in-
    A broken nose and a broken heart,
    An empty bottle of gin
    Well I sit and I pray
    In my broken down Chevrolet-
    While I'm singin' to myself
    There's got to be another way

    Take away, take away
    Take away this ball and chain
    I'm lonely and I'm tired
    And I can't take any more pain
    Take away, take away
    Never to return again
    Take away, take away
    Take away this ball and chain
    Well I've searched and I've searched
    To find the perfect life-
    A brand new car and a brand new suit
    I even got me a little wife-
    But wherever I have gone
    I was sure to find myself there-
    You can run all your life
    But not go anywhere

    Take away, take away
    Take away this ball and chain
    I'm lonely and I'm tired
    And I can't take any more pain
    Take away, take away
    Never to return again
    Take away, take away
    Take away this ball and chain
    Well I'll pass the bar on the way
    To my dingy hotel room-
    I spent all my money
    Been drinkin' since a half past noon-
    I'll wake there in the mornin'
    Or maybe in the county jail-
    Times are hard getting harder
    I'm born to lose and destined to fail-

    Take away, take away
    Take away this ball and chain
    I'm lonely and I'm tired
    And I can't take any more pain
    Take away, take away
    Never to return again
    Take away, take away
    Take away this ball and chain

    I was born a king of fools most
    People think I'm just a playboy
    Breaking rules. But they don't
    Know that when it comes around
    To love I always lose why
    I call myself the king of fools.
    I was born never to care but
    Now I want a love that I can
    Share. I've searched in vain for a
    Love that would never be true
    That's why I call myself
    The King of Fools
    chorus:
    King of fools, king of fools
    That's why I call myself
    The King of Fools.
    I was born without a good
    Thought just to live fast, tell a
    Lie and break a heart. I have
    Broken many hearts and I've
    Broken many rules that's why
    I call myself the King of Fools.
    I was born the King of Fools
    At any other game I never lose.
    But when it comes around to
    Love that's when I realize
    I was born the king of fools.

    I Was Wrong

    When I was young, I was so full of fear
    I hid behind anger, held back the tears
    It was me against the world, I was sure that I'd win
    The world fought back, punished me for my sins
    I felt so alone, so insecure, I blamed you instead and made sure I was heard
    And they tried to warn me of my evil ways
    But I couldn't hear what they had to say

    I was wrong, self destruction's got me again
    I was wrong, I realized now that I was wrong

    And I think about my loves, well I've had a few
    I'm sorry that I hurt them, did I hurt you too
    I took what I wanted, put my heart on the shelf
    How can ya love me when you don't love yourself
    It was me against the world, I was sure that I'd win
    The world fought back, punished me for my sins
    And they tried to warn me of my evil ways
    But I couldn't hear what they had to say

    I was wrong, self destruction's got me again
    I was wrong, I realized now that I was wrong

    I grew up fast, I grew up hard
    something was wrong from the very start
    I was fighting everybody, I was fighting everything
    but the only one that I hurt was me
    I got society's blood running down my face
    Somebody help me get outta this place
    How could someone's bad luck last so long
    until I realized that I was wrong

    I was wrong, self destruction's got me again
    I was wrong, I realized now that I was wrong

    I was wrong, self destruction's got me again
    I was wrong, I realized now that I was wrong

    It Coulda Been Me
    I got friends who are in prison,
    Friends who are dead.
    I'm gonna tell you something
    That I've often said.

    You know these things that happen,
    That's just the way it's supposed to be.
    And I can't help but wonder,
    Don't ya know it coulda been me.
    I had me a good girl,
    Her kisses sweeter than wine.
    And I had always hoped
    That someday I'd make her mine.

    But she ran off and married,
    That's just the way it's supposed to be.
    And I can't help but wonder,
    Don't ya know it coulda been me.
    Well the junkie-cops on first street,
    Sticks a needle in his arm.
    No, he never meant to do
    Anyone no harm.

    But he's buried six feet deep,
    That's just the way it's supposed to be.
    And I can't help but wonder,
    Don't ya know it coulda been me.
    I had me a good girl,
    Her kisses sweeter than wine.
    And I had always hoped
    That someday I'd make her mine.
